I agree too, I was just trying to put on the balance the amount
of work that would require graphics supporting connections.
Who's willing to do it ?
The issue is not the will nor complexity on the GD side, but
connections are not exposed outside of R (or at the C level), so
there is currently no way to do it (AFAIR). Jeff Horner has proposed
a patch long ago and Cairo works with connections if you patch R, but
connections are to date still not part of the API. So I suspect the
real issue is to create a connection API so packages (and devices)
can use it.
